To see the stories of Jesus – just add colour

6 October 2025 | By Dave Hall

It’s a 24-page colouring book/tract – available in 135 languages – which uses only Scripture to tell the story of Jesus.

The Good News Colouring Book (GNCB) may be freely downloaded from the internet and the dual language versions are perfect for sharing with people of other languages and cultures. The large-print versions are good for sharing with the elderly, whose vision may be impaired.  Any size can be used for children’s ministry.

The book’s founder, Jamie Pritchett, told CRE News: ‘We like to call it an introduction to Jesus. I have personally used it for sharing the gospel with people from other countries, people in care homes, taxi drivers and children.

‘A woman I knew had a Farsi-speaking husband who would not attend church with her. I asked her if he would mind checking the Farsi/English Good News Colouring Book for accuracy. She asked him and he agreed to do it. A few weeks later she reported that he was impressed with the book and said that it was accurate and well written. He later gave his life to Christ.’

You can find out how to use the GNCB in your neighbourhood at the Good News Colouring Book stand. Jamie Pritchett will also talk on the initiative at CRE 25 (12 noon Wed 15 Oct) in Talks Area Four.
